As an avid reader, writer, coffee lover and mother I spend my days writing with my loving family. Typically I will be writing while enjoying the warm hug that is a cup of coffee and enjoying my time spent at home with family and friends. I love the process of developing and creating books and especially love it when a character jumps off of the page and begins telling me that they would never do that. When I'm not writing I am usually reading and still enjoying my coffee.

Emma is not your typical gal, no, she moved to a tiny little town, bought a run-down looking store in the middle of town, and made it into a used bookstore and coffee shop, then bought herself a little cottage way out of town to live in. For a coffee and book addict, this is the perfect life! Her day starts normally, her favorite customer, a cute redhead she always just called Lion pops in for a cheesecake frappe and they talk for a minute. The day passes and it ends up being a long one. On her way home, Emma spots something lying in the road - as she gets out to look, she realizes it's a body, it's Lion and she is barely alive. Emma puts her in the car and rushes her to the hospital. The next day, Emma finds herself sharing a house with Star's spirit, Lion's real name, who says she can't remember what happened and needs Emma's help to figure it out. Frappe Today Dead Tomorrow is the sometimes hilarious, sometimes dangerous journey that Emma and Star take to try to find a killer. Author Leah J. Fitchett gives the reader a tale that is not too dark, not too light, but a whole lot of just right to enjoy any time you need a quick read.
Frappe Today Dead Tomorrow is definitely what I would call a cozy mystery genre. You have a cozy setting, the used bookstore slash coffee shop. Then you have an almost murder; although Star is still alive and in a coma in the hospital, her spirit is with Emma. Now, add in a love interest in the form of the nerdy but handsome New Age, occult Wicca store owner named Aiden, and you have everything you need for an afternoon of fun reading! Author Leah J. Fitchett takes great pains to give you just enough information about what happened to Star to bring about Emma finding her, without going into graphic detail, but you can still picture it in your mind, and you can see and feel the reactions of the characters from the way it is written. This is a great, fun, quick read for anyone!
